Brawler fighter build

[benwin007]

1 level of fighter 4 levels of brawler I'm using pathbuilder and there is an extra minus 2 going to my attack that idk where its coming from and I have twf selected and makn hand is heavy spiked shield while off hand is spiked gauntlet. They both are in close weapon group and I'm taking martial versatility and I have weapon focus and improved shield bash I'm not sure where the extra minus 2 is coming from could someone help? I wanna make sure I'm not doing something wrong.

brawlers flurry is TWF as a class feature. That has a -2 penalty on attack rolls without the off handed-ness of the regular twf rules. You can’t stack brawlers flurry and the twf feat for 3 attacks at 2nd level, for example. But based on how pathbuilder works, it might accidentally use the twf penalties and brawlers flurry penalties. I don’t really know since I haven’t used pathbuilder before.

They said brawlers flurry acts as twf but one thing I just thought of is weapon proficiency they heavy shield is martial but I'm proficient in close weapons group which the heavy shield falls under is it possible that that's were the second minus 2 came from?

From what I found out apparently masterwork doesn't affect the attacking side of the shield :(

That is a separate masterwork that needs to be paid for
